January 21, 200521 yr I have the Lago AMS scenery for 2002, and it seems it can be patched to work in Fs 2004. Is this scenery of AMS better or the freeware NL 2000? CheersChris
January 21, 200521 yr I tried using Lago's EHAM in FS2004 and it indeed works, kinda.But the nightlighting has pretty strange effects.The current NL2000 version looks a lot better (which is hardly surprising as it makes use of 4 year newer technology).
January 23, 200521 yr Author Hi Chris,I have not used the Lago but my impression of the NL2000 Holland/EHAM scenery is that it is truly stunning. The impression I get of LAGO is that its scenery for Italian cities look great but they're over-charging as with all city scenery developers for what amounts to nothing more than eye-candy of a city. We fly planes which land on AIRPORTS, not cities, so I have a hard time paying for an arm and a leg for a single city (after buying FlightSoft's Hong Kong 2004), no matter how "famous", even New York. This is why I still won't buy Aerosoft's Manhattan even though I know it is superbly done - much better in detail than Hong Kong - because at 29.95 Euro for what amounts to only Manhattan, not even the airports, it is highway robbery!You won't be disappointed with NL2000 but I seem to have only summer textures, even in winter. I may be doing something wrong...I'll have to look into it some time.John I love flying my "iddy biddy Jumbo" CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E8400, socket 775/3GHz/1333MHz bus/6MB cache MOBO: Asus P5E3 Deluxe WiFi-AP@n/Intel X38 chipset RAM: 4GB Kingston HyperX 1333MHz. rated 7-7-7-20, matched pair (2 x 2GB) GRAPHICS: Sapphire Radeon 5770HD 1GB (w/ fan) MONITOR: Samsung 24", 2494HM LCD wide-screen 1920x1080 SOUND: SoundBlaster Audigy 2 ZS HARD DRIVES: 1xWestern Digital WD1600JD SATA 160GB (primary/Windows XP and system boot drive) 1xWestern Digital WD3200AAJS SATA2 320GB (secondary/Flight Simulator 2004 running off WinXP Pro 32-bit, games video editing drive) 1xWestern Digital 500GB Black series SATA2 (Windows 7 64-bit: FSX is running off Win7; Windows XP Professional 32-bit) CASE: Antec Sonata III 500W OS: Windows 7 Professional 64-bit for FSX; Windows XP Pro 32-bit for other things.
